The Invincible Mortal Wanderer

[Sages of the Spring and Autumn Period + Corpse Demons and Devils + Monsters and Ghosts + The Nine Provinces in Their Early Days] As the saying goes: “Without the Master, the world would have been shrouded in darkness for all eternity.” This is a very long story, so let me tell it to you slowly. Four hundred years ago, just as the Master was nearing the end of his life, he happened upon Lin Yi. The Master possessed a wondrous Cosmic Heart, making him the most powerful cultivator in the world. Lin Yi, meanwhile, had a Yin-Yang physique, a natural vessel capable of containing all things and encompassing the myriad forms of existence. The Master wanted to merge his Cosmic Heart with Lin Yi’s, helping him cultivate a Cosmic Dao Body and become an invincible cultivator. After all, life in the human world was hard, and demons and monsters watched hungrily from the sidelines. Only a great master could protect humanity from their incursions... From then on, Lin Yi became the Master’s youngest disciple. The Master lived for over a thousand years and passed down countless schools of thought throughout the world. But the way he taught Lin Yi was different from how he taught his other disciples. He took Lin Yi to live among ordinary people for over a decade, never teaching him the Dao or any profound arts. As a result, Lin Yi had no idea how powerful the Master was. He only knew him as a learned old man. Even after the Master left the country to travel, Lin Yi worried about his safety every day. In truth, the Master did all this so Lin Yi would remember his life among ordinary people and, once he grew powerful, never lose sight of his true self. The Master had poured his heart and soul into protecting humanity, and he spared no effort in raising Lin Yi... As those who came before pass on, how will the next generation preserve the peace of Heaven and Earth and keep the human world safe?
